I haven't given a shit about current New Japan - or puro in general (other than FUTEN and the occasional appearance from Dick Togo or Tenryu), for that matter - since "current" was 2008, but that shit is halfway towards Ikeda/Ono levels of violence.

I tried to make a list of 15 people that stand out to me for positive reasons and got 7 before falling asleep out of half boredom/half depression/half anger (three halves, yes).

Good thing. I brought that up because of the FUTEN match where Ono practically full force knees Ikeda in the back of the head. It's about the most ridiculous piece of violence I've seen in wrestling. That Nakamura clip only being half as violent still makes it plenty nasty.
